GUEST ACCESS
You will have access to our 4 bed, 4 bath log cabin and also enjoy sole access to the entire property and lake.

It is conveniently located only 0.8 miles to the famous resort-town of Ellicottville. Only 1.5 miles to Holimont Private Ski Resort, and just 2 miles from Holiday Valley Ski Resort, Golf Course, Driving Range, New York Canopy Ziplines Aerial Adventure Park, Sky Flyer Mountain Coaster, and Tubing. Ellicottville Rodeo is also a popular tourist attraction in the summertime, usually around the 4th of July. Another Popular draw is Gentners Commission Market (Flea Market/Farmers Market/Auction Barn) opens at dawn, every Wednesday, year round, located in nearby Springville. Fall Festival (Octoberfest, October 9-10), and Summer Music Festivals are also a big deal in the town of Ellicottville. If you have never been, I highly recommend it!

In town you will discover great restaurants and a lively night life. The local favorite Ellicottville Brewing Company (EBC), and Villaggio, are great fine dining experiences with a great atomosphere. The EBC offers traditional American food in a fine dining atmosphere and the Villagio offers more seafood on its menu including Chillean Sea Bass, and often has live music as well. Check out the another local favorite called The Gin Mill, a casual feeling bar restaurant and bar with reasonably priced menu which also has live music several nights a week with no cover charge. From there, the late night crowd likes to congregate at either Maddigan's Rockin' EVL bar, or Ballons. Both are great for more of a Bar/Club scene.

If you want to stay closer to the cottage, we have a number of great places within walking distance! Right next door we have Hockey legend's very own, the always popular, Tim Hortons Cafe and Bakery. Right across the street from there you will discover the fashionable Steelbound Brewery & Restaurant, which serves great food and decent priced flights of inovative beverages. Also, we just installed a brand new luxury HOT TUB for your enjoyment!

Other details to note:
You are welcome to use the entire property, and should be the only ones on it. However, due to the popularity and location of my property, on occasion there are people who stop to go fishing on my property. If that is the case during your stay, and it bothers you, you can ask them to leave or let me know, and I can send someone out there.

There is a blow up queen size mattress in the upstairs bedroom closet and two extra large cots for extra guests to sleep on. Please be careful not to scratch the hardwood floor with the cots, as we have had problems with this in the past. Please place the cots only on the carpet.

Propane, charcoal, and firewood are not included with the property. However, we have a propane tank for the grill that you can refill if you need to. Sometimes previous guests will leave some propane/charcoal/fire wood behind when they leave. If they do, you are free to use that free of charge. Real Applewood logs for the fire place are sold right out back of the cottage in the parking lot, only while supplies last. Prices may vary due to supply, as Applewood is notoriously hard to source due to its superb utility in all of its aspects. It is the best for carving, the best for furniture, the best for smoking food, and also produces America's favorite fruit. So nobody ever wants to cut these trees down! Yet we provide the best of the best at this cottage so we bring it to you as often as we can! A separate charge will be added to your account if you would like to purchase some.
